Reviews

Charlotte Observer -
Ferrell's ideally suited to man-boy characters, and that's what Phil Weston is in "Kicking."
|
|
Christian Science Monitor -
Some scenes are just silly, others are dead-on uproarious. Ditka, a real-life football legend, is a real find as our hero's assistant.

|
The Hollywood Reporter -
Laughs-wise, it lacks the raucous edge of an "Old School" or "Anchorman" or the retro charm of an "Elf," but there's still plenty of Will-power to fuel this likable underdog trifle. It certainly is more enjoyable than a lot of what passes for family entertainment these days.

Variety -
An immensely likable, funny comedy that finds a novel approach to that familiar combo of kids and sports.

Dallas Observer -
This might be the most predictable movie of the year, but at least it delivers everything you expect it to.
